Chapter 87: The Bloody Battle of Seluda (8)

November 6, 4:25 a.m

"My lord, all the artillery is in place. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info," an Imperial lieutenant colonel said respectfully to the man in front of him.

"Attack!" DeWitt ordered.

Bang bang~

A series of cannon shots came from the Empire's frontline positions, and all the Imperial soldiers couldn't help but shudder under their feet, almost shaking down by the violent vibration.

"Enemy attack!"

There was a shout from someone in the defenders' position, and everyone who was still asleep woke up. Before dawn, the artillery bombardment of the Reich began.

Boom boom boom ~~

Many people have just woken up and don't know what is going on, they are hit by shells. More and more people ran towards the fortifications, and in the darkness it was difficult to see under their feet, and many people tripped and fell to the ground.

Energy cannons bloom all over the town of Seluda, and the whole town is as bright as day, but the miserable cries for help are piercing. The town's already small buildings were once again blown to the ground.

The first round of shelling inflicted heavy casualties on the defenders of the town of Seluda.

The fat man was also sleeping, but he was awakened by the sound of an 'enemy attack'. The fat man, who reacted, immediately led his soldiers to move towards the nearest fortification. The fat man saw the huge number of energy cannon shells in the night sky.

"Quick, fast!"

The shelling continued until daylight, and with the order of DeWitt, the 27th Army attacked on all fronts.

The Imperial soldiers slowly entered Seluda, and by this time the streets were already full of enemy troops.

The fat man had already pointed the rifle in his hand at an Imperial officer. As soon as the enemy comes within attack, the defenders will open fire with all their might.

300 meters.. Two hundred meters... One hundred meters...

Bang!

A gunshot rang out.

The bullet pierced the Imperial officer's helmet, and the headshot officer fell to the ground on his back, blood spilled from the back of his head.

"If there is an enemy, hide quickly!"

Rumble~

A cannon shot directly lifted the commander into the sky.

Fierce fire swept through the Imperial infantry group from the defenders' positions, and in an instant, more than a dozen enemies were hit by bullets. The rest of the enemy reacted and immediately took refuge in the shelters on both sides. But to their surprise, the soldiers who had just taken refuge in the bunker were blown out.

"Watch out for the ambush!"

Many soldiers who had already taken refuge in bunkers stepped on tripwire mines and were blown away, and some soldiers wanted to dodge but did not dare to dodge, so they had to lie on the ground and fight back.

The Imperial forces were so suppressed by the firepower of the fat man's side that they could not move forward, and even had a tendency to retreat. And just then, a dull roar caught the fat man's attention. Lifting the telescope around his neck, the fat man saw a huge figure.

"It's a tank!" The fat man yelled, "Grenade launcher! ā€

"In!" Two soldiers carried launchers into the trenches.

The tank had already revealed its original form, with its huge gun muzzle aimed at the defenders' positions.

Rumble~

The shell exploded in front of the fat man, but fortunately he fell into the trench in time.

The rubble flew and the fat man knocked the dust off his face, and after searching left and right, he found that the two soldiers standing next to him had been killed by shells. Shaking his somewhat cloudy head, the fat man grabbed the launcher in his hand.

Filled with ammunition, the fat man aimed at the tank is a shot.

Rumble~

The grenade launcher used to attack the mech was very effective against the tank, destroying the tank's drive with just one shot, and the 120mm running was also blown and distorted. The tank got stuck in the middle of the street. Just when everyone thought that the crisis was over, two windows opened on the tank, and two machine guns came out of the windows.

A dense rain of bullets hit the federal positions, and two more soldiers were swept away by bullets, and they were instantly killed. The fat man tossed the launcher aside, grabbed the rifle with his backhand and pointed it at the two windows that were spitting tongues of fire.

The next moment, both machine guns were firing at the same time.

The number of grenades is getting smaller and smaller, and the fat man has no choice but to use this method to knock out the enemy's built-in machine gun position. The Imperial soldiers, who were worried that they had nowhere to hide, ran behind the tank, and the bullets hit the tank with a 'dangdang~' sound.

The enemy and the enemy opened fierce fire, but the Imperial soldiers failed to advance a single bit. As long as they get out of the tank bunker range, what awaits them is a fat sniper. Now all the Imperial soldiers dare not show their bodies, they are afraid of the fat man.

"Call the rear command and request reinforcements." An Imperial officer called for help from the rear with a communicator in hand. In a short time, two mechs were dispatched.

As soon as the two Imperial [Hundred Battles] mechs came up, they destroyed all the buildings that were more than three stories high. As a result, the federal position was completely exposed to the crossfire of the two mechs, and a howitzer had just been launched from the upstairs building when it was completely destroyed by the energy cannon on the [Hundred Battles] mech.

"Hidden!" The fat man waved his hand and pressed the two soldiers beside him into the trench.

Da ~ A series of energy bullets hit the trench, and several Federation soldiers who had no time to dodge were even knocked to the ground by the large-caliber bullets for this mecha.

Two Imperial mechs stepped over the scrapped tanks and led dozens of soldiers behind them to attack the position. The weapons used to deal with the heavy armor have been destroyed, and the grenade launcher is of little use against the mech, which is full of energy shields.

"Battalion commander, withdraw."

"yes, we need to retreat to the next position!"

The fat man wiped a handful of dust from his face, "Withdraw!" ā€

The remaining dozen or so soldiers immediately followed the fat man along the trench and retreated into the town, where the position could no longer be defended.

However, at this moment, the two Federation soldiers stayed while the fat man was not paying attention. They strapped grenades, grenades, and even artillery shells, all the explosives they could collect, to themselves. They leaned into the trenches and waited quietly for the Imperial troops to enter the trenches.

The first to cross the trench were two Imperial mechs, followed by a group of Imperial soldiers.

The two mechs failed to find the two soldiers lying in the pile of dead people, and quickly scouted the surroundings and found nothing unusual.

At that moment, two soldiers suddenly jumped up from the trench, each hugging an Imperial mech. The Imperial soldiers behind them immediately opened fire on the two, but the two soldiers never let go.

Hiss~

Pulling the fuse, all the Imperial soldiers could see what was tied to the person holding the two mechs tightly. Everyone screamed and fled to the back, and the pilots in the two mechs tried to throw the two people off their legs. But it's too late.

Boom~

The fat man, who was leading his subordinates to retreat, heard the explosion and looked in the direction of the position behind him. Suddenly, he glanced quickly into the group, "What about Phil and Lynn?!" ā€

Everyone was shaking their heads, and the fat man looked at the thick black smoke rising behind him and understood.

Shook his head fiercely, "Withdraw!" The fat man continued to retreat to the rear with the remnants of the soldiers.
